Al was born in Bridgeport, November 24, 1928, son of the late Mario and Florence Jaconette DeCarli. Al was a graduate of UConn, graduated Phi Beta Kappa, and was a self-employed registered pharmacist for Rotary Drug of Stratford for many years until his retirement. He served in the Army. He achieved 4 hole-in-ones as a member of PGA National Golf Club. He was also a past member of Mill River C.C. Al played tennis, bowled, gardened, worked out in the gym, and was an avid reader. Up until a few weeks before his death he was reading the Wall Street Journal. He also enjoyed watching sports on television especially golf and doing puzzles.

My most cherished memory of Mr & Mrs DeCarli was my first meeting them in the ‘70’s. They graciously hosted a surprise 25th wedding anniversary party in their Trumbull CT home for Fran & Peg Halpin (my college roommate, Cindy’s parents) Over the years, Cindy has told funny tales of childhood adventures she shared with the DeCarli family. Sending virtual hugs & prayers for all the DeCarli siblings
